Sea Breeze Sweater
Sjøbris Sweater (Norwegian and English)

Sjøbris means "Sea Breeze" in Norwegian. This quick-knit, lightweight, fluffy, and soft mohair sweater is perfect for a breezy summer night.

The sweater is knit from the bottom up in double yarn. Along the way, you'll split the work into a back and front piece. These are knit separately at the same length, before joining the shoulders together. You pick up for the sleeves on each side. The sweater is beginner-friendly and quick to knit.
